So, I actually got "bakey" yesterday and decided to attempt to make baked oatmeal for the boys' breakfasts. Yes, we are still looking at a nice amount of carbs and sugar (oatmeal counts as carbs, right?), but at least I know (and can pronounce) the ingredients list, which is better than packing them full of dyes and high fructose corn syrup....along with all the sugar found in breakfast cereals. And I feel like oatmeal is a much healthier option all-around.

All-in-all it turned out well. Very moist, but a little too crumbly for anything but the table. I'd like something that holds together a little better just in case I need to take them on the go. Jack loved them...he ate Noah's too LOL

It sounds really good! Is it like a cake or bar when it's done then? I think I could get Blake to eat it, but Morgan would not like the idea of raisins in it. I can't really blame her-I never used to care for raisins in my baked goods either-LOL! I always ate it though and I actually like it now :-)
